Telehealth, sometimes referred to as telemedicine, involves the delivery of health care services using electronic communications, information technology, or other means between a medical provider and a patient who are not in the same physical location. Telemedicine may be used for diagnosis, treatment, follow-up and/or patient education, and may include, but is not limited to:

• Electronic transmission of medical records, photos/images, personal health information, or other data between a patient and a medical provider;

• Interactions between a patient and medical provider via audio, video, and/or asynchronous data communications; and

• Use of output data from medical devices, sound, and video files.

Telehealth services are not a substitute for in-person health care in all cases. As with any medical service, there are potential risks associated with the use of telehealth.

By creating an Account and accessing the Services, you acknowledge that you understand the risks and benefits of telehealth, you have received adequate answers to any questions you have about the use of telehealth, and you consent to the use of telehealth in the delivery of health care services to you.

Privacy.

Use of the Websites and/or the Service is also governed by our Notice of Privacy Practices and privacy policy, copies of which may be found on our Websites. You authorize APEX Telehealth Clinic to use and publish any comments you choose to share about the Service, including comments shared in patient satisfaction surveys, unless otherwise specified. APEX Telehealth Clinic will only publish comments using your first name. If you choose to share your protected health information over email, telephone or video communications you acknowledge that such email, telephone or video communications may not be encrypted and/or may not be a secure method of communication, and you assume the risk of such unsecured communications.

As part of the Services, you may choose to receive mental health therapy services via video conferencing, which is commonly referred to as teletherapy, or via telephone in limited circumstances. You acknowledge that the Provider may maintain psychotherapy notes during these teletherapy sessions, which are kept separate from the rest of your medical record. Subject to the confidentiality provisions outlined in our Notice of Privacy Practices, you understand that other Providers may see you received teletherapy services but cannot view these psychotherapy notes.

12.

Prescription Delivery Options.

APEX Telehealth Clinic Providers write prescriptions in accordance with their professional judgment and federal and state law. Prescriptions may be written only for the limited medical conditions we treat. You will not be able to obtain a prescription product unless you have completed a consultation with a APEX Telehealth Clinic Provider. There is no guarantee that a Provider will write you a prescription. We do not write prescriptions for DEA controlled substances.

If a Provider determines a prescription is appropriate for you and writes a prescription, you may fill the prescription at any pharmacy of your choice. Certain prescriptions can be filled through a mail-order pharmacy. Other prescriptions are not available through a mail-order pharmacy and must be filled by a local pharmacy of your choice. You will be prompted to state your choice of pharmacy during your use of the Service.

If you complete a consultation with a Provider and fill a prescription through a mail-order pharmacy, the prescription product will be shipped to you by the applicable pharmacy. Mail-order pharmacies are third-parties, independent of APEX Telehealth Clinic.

The costs associated with a prescription written in connection with a telehealth service may be included in the Membership Fee described below. For all other prescriptions, you or your health insurance are responsible for the cost of the prescription product. If you fill a prescription with a pharmacy other than a mail-order pharmacy, APEX Telehealth Clinic will send the prescription to your selected pharmacy, but you will be responsible for picking up or otherwise obtaining the prescription product and paying the pharmacy directly for the cost of the prescription product.

13.
Membership Fee.

APEX Telehealth Clinic charges a membership fee (the “Membership Fee”) for access to certain features of the Services. The Membership Fee may be modified by notice in accordance with these Terms. Certain members may have access to the Services through their employers, professional affiliations, or other organizations, and as a result, the Membership Fee will not apply to such members.

The Membership Fee covers costs associated with personal services and tools that enhance your healthcare experience, but are typically not covered by insurance. Membership services include higher-touch personal services such as insurance and billing navigation, advice on provider selection, specialist booking and referral management, digital tools for easy access to APEX Telehealth Clinic services and doctors, as well as lifestyle and wellness offerings. PAYMENT OF THE MEMBERSHIP FEE TO APEX TELEHEALTH CLINIC IS NOT A REQUIREMENT TO RECEIVE MEDICAL SERVICES AT APEX TELEHEALTH CLINIC. There are options for accessing Medical Services with APEX Telehealth Clinic without payment of this fee, such as cancelling before the free 30 day trial period is over. To learn more about the Membership Fee contact us at info@apextelehealthclinic.com.

The Membership Fee is not a covered benefit under health insurance plans or other healthcare benefit plans such as the Health Saving Account or Flexible Spending Account. As a result, you acknowledge that you may not be able to submit the Membership Fee for coverage under your insurance or benefit plan, and as such, you will be responsible for the cost of such Membership Fee.

For our paid members, APEX Telehealth Clinic will charge your Membership Fee to your designated billing account. You may select either a monthly or an annual Membership Fee. You agree to make the payment using your chosen payment method. IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS SUBJECT TO THE MEMBERSHIP FEE, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOUR CHOSEN PAYMENT METHOD THE MEMBERSHIP FEE AT THE TIME OF INITIAL PAYMENT AND EACH RENEWAL, UNTIL YOU CANCEL. YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP BEFORE IT RENEWS TO AVOID BEING CHARGED THE MEMBERSHIP FEE FOR THE NEXT RENEWAL TERM. YOU CAN CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP AT ANY TIME BY CONTACTING US AT APEXTELEHEALTHCLINIC.COM. IF YOU CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP AND YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TERM HAS NOT EXPIRED, YOU MAY CONTINUE TO USE THE SERVICES UNTIL THE END OF YOUR THEN-CURRENT MEMBERSHIP TERM AND YOUR MEMBERSHIP WILL NOT BE RENEWED AFTER YOUR THEN-CURRENT TERM EXPIRES. HOWEVER, YOU WON’T BE ELIGIBLE FOR A PRORATED REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE MEMBERSHIP FEE PAID FOR THE THEN-CURRENT MEMBERSHIP PERIOD.

If the amount to be charged to you varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), for example, due to an increase in the Membership Fee, you have the right to receive, and we will provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 30 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. If you do not agree with the new amount in the notice, you may cancel the transaction by contacting us at info@apextelehealthclinic.com

14.
Free Trials and Other Promotions.
ANY FREE TRIAL OR OTHER PROMOTION THAT PROVIDES PAID MEMBER-LEVEL ACCESS TO THE SERVICES MUST BE USED WITHIN THE SPECIFIED TIME OF THE TRIAL. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO CONTINUE YOUR MEMBERSHIP, YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR TRIAL MEMBERSHIP BEFORE THE END OF THE TRIAL PERIOD IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED THE MEMBERSHIP FEE, AS APPLICABLE. IF YOU CANCEL PRIOR TO THE END OF THE TRIAL PERIOD AND ARE INADVERTENTLY CHARGED FOR A MEMBERSHIP, PLEASE CONTACT US AT APEXTELEHEALTHCLINIC@GMAIL.COM FOR A REFUND.
